Don steps out staring up at the dragon, mentally commanding Edgar to fly. "I'm not done with you yet!" He points both fists at the fleeing dragon and fires twin blasts of pure eldritch energy.
"And that's why I said fighting dragons is a fools errand!" the very wounded Matrix limps over to Flint and helps him up. "lets get to the ship before something else tries to eat us"
The young white dragon flies off into the night sky, speeding off out of your reach and out of sight with a frustrated roar.
Your crew had already been stoking the fires to get the airship going, and welcome you aboard after the short-lived battle between yourselves and the dragon.
"We are permitted to return to the Klauthen Vale once your mission is complete!" says Delsephine. "Until then, we have no way to communicate with him."
Once settled in on the airship and instructions given, Flint casts speak with dead and in a shivering voice tries to communicate with the squid headed corpse we have been carrying around.
The Bag of Holding pops open with a sucking sound, which releases the most odious stench you have possibly ever smelled. The enemy's corpse has not fared well these past days.
Every round you're within 20 feet of the decaying corpse you must make a DC 12 Constitution save or be violently ill (the effect isn't magical, but acts like the stinking cloud spell).
(Flint can ask his questions, but needs one CON save per question, plus one for the time it takes to cast the spell)
// Nice! Yes, since this is a poison effect, your dwarven resilience would absolutely apply. If anyone else wants to be close enough to hear the answers, they’ll also need to make the CON saves :) //
The bloated corpse speaks from its toothless mouth, and its ink-black eyes loll to one side. His tongue, covered in suckers, flaps in an unsettling way as he speaks.
“I worship...the great King...of the Trackless Depths.”
Ink wretches at the smell, commenting, "This was not a great idea - we should burn the body to ash."
Con saves... 14, 24,24, 18, 15, 8...
... After composing himself, Ink blurts, "Perhaps ask him, 'What is the name of the King of the Trackless Depths' or 'What is the great endeavor you hoped to achieve through sacrificing Sanra?'"
Crownsguard’s reactionary strike cuts into the dragon’s haunches, and it cries in pain, but still climbs into the darkness above.

Flint wakes in time to see Ink firing at the dragon, turns to get it sighted and casts guiding bolt at it.
Attack 11 for 16
Ink feels pretty good about that last shot as it sails into the darkness, and hears the dragon grunt in pain.

Flint's bolt scintillates brilliantly before dissipating into empty air.

“I worship...the great King...of the Trackless Depths.”

“The greatest...of endeavors.”
